Goddess (2013)

I didn't have much patience for this movie. I was expecting something quite different but instead found it pretty annoying. The main character was uninspiring, selfish and a bitchy old housewife. She was a terrible mother to two bratty twin boys with severe discipline problems. I don't know why she even had kids, she was utterly depressing.The concepts just not working. You cannot honestly tell me people would actually watch her VLOG channel. She's just not a star and not as funny as she likes to think.It was also incredibly odd to see the cast break out into song and dance. Maybe if they just focused on her musical videos instead of trying to turn the whole thing into an awkward musical it may have been better. But then again, probably not.

What a movie! This movie took me on a journey I never wanted to return from!From the start of the movie right until the very end I was overcome with warm feelings deep in my soul.For me to not get up for a toilet break and leg stretch during a movie means they must be doing something right!The character of Helen was one I thoroughly enjoyed. I'm not sure if she has done any other movies but i found her screen presence and charm somewhat refreshing. Would love to see her feature more in the sequel.Do yourself a favor and grab this one and a big serving of popcorn from Coles for an enjoyable night in!

Watched this movie and was pleasantly surprised on how much I enjoyed it... great music,lovely voices A storyline with no violence,shooting etc which seems to be the norm these days... Beautiful scenery and shows off Australia very well. I am a resident of a retirement village and I often hear from the others that there are no movies 'out there' that they can enjoy. I will certainly endorse this movie for them to view and am sure they will all enjoy it as much as I did. The computer age has certainly brought the world onto our doorstep and of course this movie shows what can be achieved but that you do have to be careful about what you show on screen! Ambition is good but then so is family, you just have to know how to put the 2 together so they work in 'sink'

What a great movie. I'm still singing the songs and I'm recommending it to all my friends. Goddess is funny, heartwarming and a pleasure to watch. The choice of the director (Mark Lamprell) to cast Laura Michelle Kelly and Ronan Keating as a young UK family transported into a new community in a new country is inspired. They simply "click" on screen and exude warmth. The director's choice of Magda is equally inspired. She is nothing short of a knockout. The musical numbers are very catchy and expertly choreographed. This is the movie Australians have been asking for for years. All too often critics have complained that Australian movies take themselves far too seriously. Not so Goddess. No bleak navel gazing happening here. Goddess is quirky and fun from beginning to end.Give yourselves a treat over the Easter break. Go and see Goddess and have great time.
